It's weird how much, and how quickly, things change once you finish school. It seems like just yesterday that I was writing this post, feeling totally anxious about graduating and becoming a real person in the world.
That anxiety quickly turned into the purest form of happiness -- freedom from school, freedom to do what I want to do. Not to say that the unknown isn't ever unsettling, but sometimes there's nothing more empowering or exciting.
Luckily, my family and friends make the unknown less scary. It's not often you find people who only want the best for you, people who build you up and encourage you and genuinely want you to conquer the world. People you can just sit with, on docks and porches and living room floors, for hours on end.

You are so very lucky to have friends and family like that. Clearly you cherish it, which is wonderful.
I always look forward to your posts. They're always beautiful and heartfelt. I'm in my second year of of college and sometimes I feel so mixed up about whether or not I want these years to be over or if I'm enjoying them so much, I never want it to end. Anyways, I always love reading your blog because it just helps me feel a little more at ease, so thank you.
I totally understand what you mean, I graduated last Thursday and have mixed feelings: don't want to do anything else ever again and can't wait to do something else, haha, I guess I'm just crazy. Love your photos. Besos!
I cannot wait to be finished with uni! Especially with weather like that (in your pictures) oh man do i wish i had freedom
Isn't it amazing how graduating, which seems so scary until it happens, is one of the most liberating things there is?
Having a dock to sit on certainly helps with the liberating, relaxing aspect of it, I think.
so true.
Yes! it feels sooooo good to be done with school. and friends are everything-- i have learned that after moving cross-country all alone. p.s. i LOVE hailey's nail polish...
wow this post just totally gave me comfort.
I graduated last week and I having so anxious/nervous/stressed... starting a new job, moving, finding a place to live.
This gives me a little hope! Thanks!

it's so true. i was so nervous to graduate and especially since i didn't have an exact plan. but i got real comfortable real quick in the freedom to do whatever i felt like with no looming paper deadlines
I love how you describe that uncertainty as being empowering and exciting. I'm sort of in a similar situation, with not long to go until I finish my university degree and still not feeling 100% about what I want to do with my life. I can't wait for the freedom, but it does scare me a little! Beautiful photos, as always xxx
wow. very powerful and very inspiring :)
Olivia you are so annoyingly tanned, haha! I am jealous. I need a beach house.
